Very dark evening forEmpoli of Paul Zanetti, defeated 7-0 by Roma in a match without history from the first minute (here is the story of the penalty episode). The Tuscans remain at 0 points, in last place after four days of Serie A. In the post-match at the Olympic Stadium, it was not the Italian coach who spoke to Dazn’s microphones, but the sporting director Pietro Accardi. Below are his words.
Empoli, Accardi: “We must apologize”
“Today it is necessary to apologize. I’m here to show my face. Sorry. There is a lot of disappointment and regret, especially for the fans who supported us until the end. Our first thoughts go to them“, Pietro Accardi told Dazn after the 7-0 in Roma-Empoli.
Empoli, Accardi on Zanetti: “We’ll take an evening to reflect”
On the future of coach Paolo Zanetti: “At this moment the responsibility lies not only with the coach, but with everyone: me first. It is clear that we will take some time for reflection. There’s something wrong. How much time do we take? This evening. This does not mean that Zanetti will no longer be the coach. But it is right after a period like this to reflect“.
Accardi again on the bad start to the season: “Difficult to explain what is happening. I live every day with the team, I am ultra-present, and what they do in every training session is not what is shown in the match. There is an emotional aspect that doesn’t let us play freely“.
Finally, Accardi closed his interview with Dazn like this: “Speaking after such a result leads to questioning everything. We tried to give continuity to last season’s finale. We started this year trying to adapt the team with these characteristics“.
